7 days sober and attended my first AA meeting

today is 7 days sober and i just attended my first AA meeting. i was so nervous about going to the meeting, but it was so so great. i’m really glad i built up the courage to go, because i know this is something that is going to be beneficial for my sobriety. i’ve been really struggling lately, but i’m feeling very proud of myself right now. i hope you all have a wonderful day/night wherever it is you are :heart:

This is gold. Hold onto this feeling.

I am very glad you have a good experience, meetings have saved my life so I keep going back. For me it just keeps getting better, I have been going for over 3 years now. Really pleased for you, and congrats on your week sober.

At first, i got sick and tired of meetings. Now, I’m not sure that it would be wise for me not to go to one

I think the fact you finally got your ass in a seat at a meeting deserves even more congratulatory fan fare. That’s huge. A lot of us have been there. Fear of walking in to those rooms. Great job.
Proud of you too.
